The activation energy E and Avrami exponent g were determined by nonisothermal method. It is found that the value of E varies with increasing TeO2 and reaches a minimum at 10 mol fraction TeO2, while g decreases from 3.65 to 1.78 with the addition of TeO2. X-ray diffraction shows that Ba2TeaOs, MgTe205, and SrTeOa phase formed when the glasses were reheated. The addition of TeO2 changes the crystallization mechanism and improves the stability of the fluoroaluminate glass.展开更多

Measurements of absorption, emission and up-conversion spectra were performed to examine the effect of concentration quenching on spectroscopic properties. In the glasses with Er^(3+) concentrations below 10% (mol fraction), concentration quenching is low and the Er^(3+)/Yb^(3+) co-doped fluoroaluminate glasses gave stronger fluorescence of 1.54 μm from the (()~4I_(13/2))→(()~4I_(15/2)) transition than those of Er^(3+) singly-doped glasses. In the glass with Er^(3+) concentrations above 10%, concentration quenching of 1.54 μm obviously occurs more than that of the Er^(3+) singly-doped samples because of the back energy-transfer from Er^(3+) to Yb^(3+). To obtain the highest emission efficiency at 1.54 μm, the optimum doping-concentration ratio of Er^(3+)/Yb^(3+) is found to be approximately 1∶1 in mol fraction when the Er^(3+) concentration is less than 10%.展开更多
